Re: Public Comments; 1st Amendment Violation, Invasion of Privacy, Discrimination, Harassment, Instigation & Abuse of Power & Collusion of City Staff Must End! Dear Mayor & City Council,
As a public member, I have a right to engage in business with this City's public servants.
On occasions, I have contacted Hayward Animal Shelter and Control over a period of past 7-8 years. This involved reporting sick or injured animals, animal cruelty, dumping and theft of cats (to HPD also), for intake of felines kittens and cats found or rescued, trying to inquire about shelter services available to public like its TNR, (trap neuter and release) feral cat program and more. Unfortunately, they mostly failed to reapond to me and that evidenced a pattern of discrimination, denial of public service, harassment and instigation or to inflame my passion.
How could they engage in such conduct with me? What will you do to rectify such disservice to me next as it continues till now?
This HAS is involved in targetting my cats colonies where I have rescued many community cats from and released. It is called trap neuter and release (TNR). They and HPD and their corrupt and criminal accomplices and operatives followed me there many times since after August 2021.
My rescues there got stolen and killed rapidly. It is serial cat killing. It did not go like this in years of my rescuing animals. It started happening only after I voiced my concerns against staff of HAS and its Manager Jeannie Comstock and HPD.
I want your help in protecting my rescues and other cats out there. The cats of others are being stolen and dumped at and near my home and it is not stopping. HAS and HPD are involved in it with Fremont Police Department, Tri City Animal Shelter (TCAS), Union City Police, some corrupt not all employees of FBI and their operatives as a way to harass, ove rburden my finances and time and entrap me. This is their strategy to divert me from suing them. I get followed by HPD every time I enter Hayward. My vehicle get vandalized or broken in too there every time almost.
I would like this matter to be referred and put on an agenda for you to formally respond to and investigate soon please.
Time is of the essence. These innocent animals are preyed upon by some very deranged and relentless people and I know they are from law enforcement indeed.
You talk about public safety at the meetings. I wish to see you put your actions behind it too. Little cats cannot fend for themselves from predator humans. We need to protect them immediately. I can discuss how I know COH staff are involved. There will be a gps, drones surveillance, call logs, chats, emails and faxes records within the City to reveal this corruption and crimes which HPD and HAS is failing to divulge in response to my records requests since few years now making illegal and unethical excuses for it. City Attorney Michael Lawson, license number 48172, and his staff attorney Amy S. Rothman, license # 308133 are denying those records knowingly. This is corruption and unethical. They are here to follow the law but not circumvent it. They are abusing their authority here.
When I ordered some public records without offering my address, City sent reply to me at my address invading my privacy injecting my address in public record that I did not want to happen for many valid and safety reasons. City Clerk office did that also many times. They need to stop that.
Would you like some public agency to hide the records or evidence you needed to prove something or find the culprits if your family members were harmed or killed wrongly? I wish you all never have to deal with such a trauma I am subjected to. These public officials are fine on surface but underneath the public fasad they are unprofessional, unkind and engage in unlawful conduct that you must curtail ple ase. Us public members cannot be bulldozed like this. They first do not call or email me back many times and then ridiculously malign or harass me that I contacted them many times. If they would reply timely after one attempt, I would not have to spend our time in following up with them, although I can reach a public office as many times anyways as needed. How unintelligent or cunning of them to do this to inflame me like this.
It is not decent to do this to us public members. The City cannot allow illegal background influences by others to railroad me. It must not be entertained but I know 100% it is what is going on. Let me prove it to you at a hearing and by first availing me the public records that are at the City that I ordered and want.
I will continue to bring real issues to your attention requesting them to be agendized for public hearings and for resolutions.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
J e ff V.

Re: Public Comments: City Attorney Michael Lawson is Corrupt, Unethical & Should Be Let Go Of.
Dear Mayor & City Council,
As a public member, I have a right to engage in business with this City's public servants.
On occasions, I have contacted City Attorney Michael Lawson for public business matters in the recent past. He mostly ignored to revert back to me.
He tried to infringe on my freedoms by dictating to me that I could only conduct my City business with him and not anyone else there but even though I disagreed wuth his tyranny and did reach out to him to inquire on matters, obtain records and discuss other business or legal matters, he mostly failed to respond. Why City must have an attorney who is that ignorant, tyrannical and irresponsible. He has opened City to liability by avoiding my matters as my interests got harmed due to his negligence.
I incorporate my previously raised concerned regarding him here in requesting you to not renew his contract and let go of him soon.
I will continue to bring real issues to your attention requesting them to be agendized for public hearings and for resolutions.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
J e ff V.
